“The SWF courses are adding an additional layer of depth to the space training pipeline in order to produce more lethal warfighters ready to execute combat operations in the complex space environment of today and tomorrow,” Sebeck said. The 319th CTS instructor cadre will consist primarily of active duty personnel, contractors, civilians, and Reserve personnel from the 42nd Combat Training Squadron with extensive expertise in space operations. All curriculum was developed by a mix of active duty, Reserve and contractor personnel.

To develop the courses, stakeholder units across the USSF were solicited for inputs for what their inbound operators should know, value and be able to do. “Space warfighters will learn about threats and how space combat disciplines are utilized from the beginning of their career in the Space Force.” Space Force to provide space warfighters the training to defeat threats in the crowded, contested space domain.”Ī passive mindset toward tactical operations is dangerous, he went on to say. “We must be ready and lethal, and it is our responsibility as the U.S. “The SWF courses pick up where UST Next left off, and builds on operator’s threat based training,” Sebeck said. Upon graduating from Undergraduate Space Training, new accessions and cross-trainees will immediately move on to the Space Warfighting Follow-on courses. “The development and integration of space professionals is a cornerstone of the way we fight wars,” Sebeck said. Space is a warfighting domain - secured and protected by the Space Force - in the same way the land, sea and air are protected by the Army, Navy, Marines and Air Force. The SWF courses are the first step toward mastering and applying space warfare discipline.” interests in space, deter aggression in, from and to space and conduct space operations. “The Space Force must develop a cadre of space warfighters to protect U.S. military develops its space warfighters and is laying the foundation for a highly trained, ready force,” Sebeck said.

Space Force cannot effectively utilize space systems to increase joint force lethality, cannot ensure the safety of the American public, nor can it defend against near-peer adversaries. Without highly trained space professionals, the U.S.
